The impacts of climate change are not gender-neutral. They heighten gender disparities and exacerbate existing vulnerabilities driven by age, race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation or socioeconomic factors. A multi-level climate governance approach, undertaken in a gender-responsive manner, offers a great opportunity to encompass the differential risks, vulnerabilities and capacities of different countries, regions, communities and groups, in every process across levels of governance. It has never been clearer the urgency of investing in climate change innovative solutions.
